The Cessation of Heroes

(written in 1989)Inclyti, Israel, super montes tuos interfecti sunt: quo modo ceciderunt fortes!There are no more heroes,and that's how life goes.Of what and whom does this speak?Vietnam, Watergate, Swaggart, and Rose.

I'm so disillusioned,Is there no one left to follow?Rationalizations, justifications...they all seem so hollow.
